Document Summary
Crucial ideas in the arguments: principle for sufficient reason, views about conceptual connection, definitions of substance + mode/affection (in)dependence. Infinity: the idea that god is infinite, very traditional that god is infinite, but the way that spinoza thinks of infinity is very unusual. P11. proofs of gods existence: ontological argument, relies on a super strong psr. If there is no explanation for the non existence of some a, then a exists (still p11. ) Spinoza thinks he can show that there is no possible way of god existence.
